The beautiful beach destination wedding of Raveena and Shyamal, who tied the knot at the luxurious Planet Hollywood Cancun in Mexico, was an elegant affair that blended traditional South Asian customs with a modern twist.
From the breathtaking ocean views to the intricate mehndi designs, their wedding was truly a feast for the senses. Their wedding was full of vibrant colors, energetic music, and mouthwatering cuisine. Read on to get the details on the magical moments of their wedding and see how they created an experience that their guests will never forget at this beach wedding.
The first step to a beach destination wedding journey is to narrow down the location and resort. We were honored to work with Raveena and Shyamal in doing just that and after researching and offering them several options, they chose Planet Hollywood Cancun.
This resort has been a client favorite for the amount of space, amenities and excellent service from start to finish. Having a travel agency like ours that specializes in South Asian destination weddings in Mexico and the Caribbean ensures you’ll work with a partner who knows which resorts are best. Plus, we are there to provide support to you and your guests with any travel questions throughout the entire wedding journey.
Raveena and Shyamal chose Mike Cantarell Films for their videographers and Mexican Wedding Photos (their sister company) for their photographers. From the moment they arrived, they seamlessly blended into the festivities, capturing every moment with creativity and precision.
Mike Cantarell Films’ cinematography was simply stunning, creating a breathtaking highlight reel that perfectly captured the love and joy of Raveena and Shyamal’s special day. Mexican Wedding Photos’ photography was equally impressive, capturing the intricate details of the couple’s stunning South Asian wedding attire against the stunning backdrop of the Cancun coastline.
We cannot recommend Mike Cantarell Films and Mexican Wedding Photos enough for their exceptional talent, professionalism, and the unforgettable memories they helped create for Raveena and Shyamal’s destination wedding.
As you select a photographer and videographer, you’ll want to ask for references. A great question to ask is if that past client has recommended them to others and if they would hire them again. You’ll want to also ask them to describe their photography or videography style. Make sure to provide them with a “must-have” list of types of shots you’d like them to capture. For instance, if there is a family member or friend who you absolutely want a picture with at your wedding, include that information.
Raveena’s glam team included Styling Trio who did her beautiful hairstyles for her wedding. Our clients have loved working with them because they are true professionals in their craft. Raveena’s makeup was by Veronica Galvan who is a hair, makeup and mehndi artist. Veronica has provided her services for our other clients and we are always impressed with her work.
The impeccable mehndi designs were by Loto Mehndi who is another favorite of our past clients. This team does an exceptional job of patiently and expertly applying the henna so that it feels like a truly relaxing experiences for brides.
No wedding is complete without beautiful décor for your wedding events because it’s an element that can add so much to the excitement of the wedding. For these services, our clients chose Zuniga Deco Cancun. From breathtaking mandaps to luxurious wedding stages to elegant table settings for wedding receptions, this team can do it all. We are always impressed by their ability to take a bride and groom’s vision and turn it into an absolute masterpiece.
As you choose your décor team, provide any color palettes you are considering for your wedding or ask them to provide ideas for you if you are still deciding. Look for a team that will provide you with many options for decorating your event space that will fit your budget.
Drums in Paradise is a group of skilled and experienced drummers who were chosen to perform at the baraat and welcome night of Raveena and Shyamal’s destination wedding at Planet Hollywood Cancun. They brought fire dancers, water drums, and of course dhol players for the wedding events.
The group’s passion for music and performance shone through in their energetic and lively drumming, which created a festive and celebratory atmosphere for the couple’s special day. The group’s rhythmic beats were perfectly synchronized with the movements of the baraat, and their music was a highlight of the wedding festivities.
